In Boone County, the Census counted 4,725 businesses with employees and 14,104 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. Boone County has 1.7 times the national share of social assistance and child care providers: 196 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, families look for programs and eligibility, so the website should show programs, eligibility, hours and how to apply or enroll. The county also has a strong cluster of sporting goods, hobby and music stores (47 establishments, twice the national share). Each of these businesses competes for the same search: someone in Sturgeon typing what they need and picking from the results that look trustworthy.
